SqueakSource.com DNS zone is up for renewal -- any takers?

John Pierce-2
Hi all,

Due to family and work pressures, I've had to down-select the number
of activities I'm involved in. Squeak is one of them that I've stepped
away from temporarily.

With that, I don't want to jeopardize one of the community's most
popular web sites -- squeaksource.

Presently I own squeaksource DNS zone and it is up for renewal now and
will expire on May 12, 2007.

Does anyone or the community want to take ownership of this zone?

I've not transferred zones before, but I suspect it isn't too hard.

Best Regards,

John Pierce

PS - Make sure to reply to me as I'm presently not subscribed to the list.
PSS - I hope to be back working Squeak soon again. I really *really*
love programming in Smalltalk.

I think I can safely speak for my colleagues in the board by proposing
that SqF takes the domain and site if no-one else steps up...

Other people would step up if necessary, but the SqF ought to be the
owner of the domain.

As far as the web site goes, people ought to be encouraged to work on
web sites for awhile.  I have found squeaksource very useful, but
every web site can be improved, and I'd love to see someone try.

Indeed.

IMHO this should be an alias for projects.squeak.org ...

yes, I think that the SqF should own this domain.

Creating an alias (source.squeak.org was suggested) has been  
discussed more than one year ago but there was never a decision,  
hence it never happened.

How can SqF register the domain if the foundation is not an entity? Or,
has it completed that task?

If it isn't too expensive I would be up for adopting the domain.  Can someone else run the image though or would I be in charge of all of that?
